Definitions
- the invention relates to perfume compositions containing alkyl-substituted benzyl cyanides as a fragrance as well as to products perfumed with these compounds.
- nitriles having the formula- in which R 1 and R 2 each may present a hydrogen atom or a methyl group and R 3 represents a branched alkyl group having at most 6 carbon atoms are strong and stable fragrances.
- the odours of the compounds according to the invention remind of algae and seaweed having ambergris-like and fatty-animal notes. Further some compound have muguet- and cumin-like notes.
- Many of the compounds according to the invention are very suitable to impart a salty note reminding of the sea to perfume compositions. This applies especially to compounds wherein R 3 is an isopropyl- or tert.-butyl group. This note was hardly obtainable with the fragrances known so far.
- Benzyl cyanide is described as a fragrance having a spicy-green odours with sweet and strong floral notes (vide S. Arctander, "Perfume and Flavor Chemicals", monograph No. 302). Therefore the odour of this compound differs completely from the odour of the compounds according to the invention.
- paraalkyl-and paraalkyl-a-alkyl-substituted benzyl cyanides were unknown in the perfume industry.
- p-isopropyl and p-tert.-butylbenzyl cyanide are described as intermediates in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals (vide Belgium Patent Specification No. 648892, "Chem.
- p-Isopropylphenyl acetaldehyde has a green and bark-woody odour (Arctander, monograph No. 2734) and the corresponding a-methyl compound has a green, juicy or twig-like odour with a sharp spicy character (Arctander, monograph No. 2718).
- the compounds according to the invention may be prepared in a way known for analogous compounds, for instance as described by B. van Zanten and W. Th. Nauta in "Rec. Trav. Chim.”, 79 [1960], pp. 1211-1223.
- a starting compound the corresponding benzylbromide or -chloride can be used, which compound is converted into the nitrile with KCN or NaCN.
- phase-transfer-catalysis can be used advantageously with a suitable catalyst like a tetraalkylammonium halide.
- the a-methyl- and a,aa-dimethyl-substituted compounds according to the invention may be prepared by methylating the corresponding p-alkylbenzyl cyanides.
- the compounds according to the invention may be used successfully in perfume compositions and in articles and materials to be perfumed for obtaining an algae- and weed-like, animal- or muguet-like, and especially a salty and marine note. Because of their great chemical stability these compounds are very suitable for perfuming of agressive materials like washing and cleaning agents as well as soap.
- perfume composition means a mixture consiting of fragrances and optionally auxiliary substances which may be dissolved in an appropriate solvent or mixed with a powdery substrate and used to impart a desired odour to the skin and/or various products.
- perfume compositions as well as the compound according to the invention per se may be used for perfuming of products.
- perfumed products are soaps, shower and bath products, washing agents, dish washing and cleaning agents, air fresheners and room sprays, pommanders, candles, cosmetics such as creams, ointments, lotions, colognes, pre- and after-shave lotions, talcum powders, hair care agents, body deodorants and antiperspirants.
- Fragrances and mixtures thereof which in combination with the alkyl-substituted benzyl cyanides according to the invention can be used for the preparation of perfume compositions are, e.g., naturally occurring products such as essential oils, absolutes, resinoids, resins, concretes, etc., especially synthetic fragrances, such as hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, acids, esters, acetals, ketals, nitriles, etc., covering saturated and unsaturated compounds, aliphatic, carbocyclic and heterocyclic compounds.
- naturally occurring products such as essential oils, absolutes, resinoids, resins, concretes, etc.
- synthetic fragrances such as hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, acids, esters, acetals, ketals, nitriles, etc.
- fragrances which may be used in combination with the compounds according to the invention are: geraniol, geranyl acetate, linalool, linalyl acetate, tetrahydrolinalool, cit- ronellol, citronellyl acetate, dihydromyrcenol, dihydromyrcenyl acetate, tetrahydromyrcenol, ter- pineol, terpinyl acetate, nopol, nopyl acetate, 2-phenylethanol, 2-phenylethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl acetate, benzyl salicylate, styrallyl acetate, benzyl benzoate, amyl salicylate, dimethylbenzyl carbinol, trichloromethylphenyl- carbinyl acetate, p-tert.-butylcyclohexyl acetate, isononyl a
- perfume compositions containing compounds according to the invention are, e.g., ethanol, isopropanol, diethyleneglycol mo- noethylether, diethylphthalate, etc.
- the amount of the benzylcyanides according to the invention that can be used in a perfume composition or in a perfumed product can be varied within broad limits and depends, e.g., on the product wherein the fragrance is used, the nature and the amount of the further components of the perfume composition and the odour effect desired. Therefore, it is only possible to indicate very broad limits, which give, however, a person skilled in the art sufficient information for an independant use of the compounds according to the invention. In most cases a quantity of only 0,001 % by weight in a perfume composition is suffisient to obtain a clearly observable odour effect. On the other hand, for obtaining special odour effects it is possible to use a quantity of 20% or more in a composition.
- the concentration is proportionally lower and depends on the quantity of the composition used in the product.
- p-Isopropylbenzyl chloride was obtained by vigorously stirring 100 g of the corresponding alcohol during 1 h with a two fold excess of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Then the organic layer was distilled in vacuo with a yield of 101 g p-isopropylbenzyl chloride.
- ⁇ -Methyl-p-tert.-butylbenzyl cyanide 1.5042 has a very strong fresh odour with sea-, muguet- and cumin-like notes and a vague citrus-like note.
- aa-Dimethyl-p-tert.-butyl- benzylcyanide 12.5018) has a clear seaweed odour with fatty, cumin and muguet notes.
- a perfume composition for soap was prepared according to the following recipe:
- a perfumed toilet soap was prepared by mixing thoroughly 1 kg of white soap grains, 20 g of above-mentioned perfume composition and 10 g of a soap dye in a soap mill. Perfumed coloured flakes were obtained, which were pressed in the usual way to toilet soap bars. The obtained toilet soap bars had a pleasant and stable odour.
- a perfume composition for air fresheners was prepared according to the followign recipe:
- a room spray was prepared by mixing 1.2 g of the perfume with 27.2 g of anhydrous ethanol, 2 g propylene glycol, 4.8 g diethylene glycol and 166 g freon. Aerosol-spray cans were filled with this mixture.
